Testimonials
Valerie Mudge2025-07-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m a 92 year old woman who recently had my third back operation. After 4 months of recovering I was left with a lot of pain in my right leg and knee and was walking with a cane. I saw Dr. Jim and he listened to my story and discussed improving my diet to include more protein. He also tested my leg in different positions and told me several simple routines to strengthen my muscles. His goal is to have me walking pain free and not limping. Already I am feeling better and I feel I have a person who will listen to me. Gaetano Alfredo Vingelli2025-05-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 Star Service! Dr. Jim’s program helped me get rid of the pain, targeting the weak areas with a tailored approach he fixed my back. I am behind satisfied and extremely happy about what I have achieved. I gained confidence in my abilities, I can plan my day and activities without worrying about the nagging pain. After years of suffering I finally found the solution. Thanks Valhalla Performance and Dr. Jim for helping me. It’s good to know that you have my “back”. Jeremy Noll2025-04-30Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I just completed my 18-session package with Dr. Jim and could not be happier with the results. 12 years ago, I had a very serious injury to my left leg. I had a grade 4 tibial plateau fracture combined with a torn meniscus and PCL. Prior to working with Dr. Jim, I had gone through all the standard PT work, cortisone injections, chiro, stretching etc. Though I would find relief here and there the chronic pain never went away. I continued to work out but always found myself modifying my movements to make up for the pain and weakness in my left knee. Then one of the trainers at my gym mentioned to me that he had worked with Dr. Jim for his knee pain and had great results, so I made the decision to give him a call. I'm so glad I did. Right off the bat I could tell Dr. Jim was different. His passion, knowledge and lack of bullshit is second to none. In our first session he noticed a huge imbalance in my squat and started working on how to address that right away. Over the next five months, he developed a routine for me that kept building week after week. Now my knee feels like it did preinjury and I can't thank him enough. If you're thinking about taking the jump stop thinking and just do it. You won't regret it. Dana Capelli2025-04-24Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Jim is amazing. He went above and beyond to help get me back on the right track. 10/10 would recommend! Evan Gramley2025-02-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been through it with my recovery process. It has been 2 years suffering with shoulder pain. I’ve done cupping, physical therapy multiple times, seen just about every specialist ,Chiropractors , acupuncture & seen some of the “best” docs in South Florida . Yes those docs gave me temporary relief but just being with Doctor Jim for 4 months I’ve felt like I’ve gained permanent stability again. I’m moving without constant doubt or hesitation again. Playing my sport confidently & most of all moving properly while doing so. Doctor Jim also noticed my hip issue and has been helping me attack that weekly. Not only has Doctor Jim gotten me stronger & more mobile in both areas. Doctor Jim got me back playing the sport I love pain free & on the road to a pain free life. Yes, I say life bc I thought I was stuck!! If you’re feeling stuck to don’t be because all you have to do is reach out to Doctor Jim! I couldn’t recommend Doctor Jim enough, he is by far the best specialist I have ever seen! He makes you feel at home and is determined to get you stronger than you were even before. Thank you Doctor Jim I am very grateful for you! Heather Uccellini2025-01-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I first met Dr Jim at a workshop at Clamtown CrossFit. I had seen others getting better from struggling- which had me interested. I stayed and listened. Right after I introduced myself and explained my elbow issue. I had struggled with my elbow for over a year. After having to have surgery on the other elbow I had started to believe I just had wonky elbows. We scheduled an appointment and I went in for an initial. While Jim was examining and doing his thing- there were moments of lessened pain. In that moment I gained a little hope and immediately committed to see what we could do. 15 weeks later I feel soooo much better. I’m honestly still in shock. I have learned how to engage other muscles and make better choices. I’m grateful I made this investment in myself. Thanks Dr Jim! Lauren Cohn2024-12-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been seeing Dr Jim for about a year now. I started because I had chronic hip pain that was preventing me from reaching my fitness goals. His unique approach helped me not only live pain free but I was able to work towards lifting heavier than I ever had. This past week I hurt my lower back doing deadlifts. He was able to get me in quickly. I was barely able to walk going into his office and after two days of strictly following his exercises and treatment plan I was significantly better. Progress with other treatments I would like take weeks to achieve, started within days. I can’t recommend Dr Jim enough. I have tried everything from chiropractors, acupuncture, cupping and massage and while those may provide temporary relief, Dr Jim’s methods allowed me to be pain free and improve my strength tremendously ashley nurkin2024-12-18Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had been suffering for years with hip and back pain on my left side. I had visited multiple orthopedic doctor’s over the years, had multiple x-rays, MRI’s, you name it I probably had it done in the hopes of easing my pain and figuring out what was going on with me. I was at my wit’s end and contemplating giving up Crossfit (my preferred choice of exercise). I thought maybe my age was catching up to me ( I’m in my 50’s) and my body just needed “softer” exercise. I was scrolling through Instagram one day and I saw an ad for Valhalla Performance. Jim peaked my interest so I reached out to him. After our initial call I came in for a visit and I never looked back. Jim is very detailed oriented, asks you lots questions about your pain points until he figures out what is really going on with you. From there he comes up with a targeted, custom plan to address your pain. The plan is not always easy but the plan will work! You have to do your “homework” when you are on your own. The programming he gives you outside of your therapy time is very important. When I first came to Jim I had stopped doing kettlebell swings, deadlifts and really any movement that required hinging. Now I am back to doing almost everything. In addition, I wake up in the mornings not feeling like someone has beat me up. Of course there are days when I am sore.. but the difference is that I am not in pain. If you are an active person and pain is holding you back from doing what you love, I would highly recommend you give Jim a call! Justin duff2024-12-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. James was awesome. His programming was very tailored to my specific needs and the constant moving target of aches and pains jiu jitsu, firefighting and life provide. I came in for some pretty serious back pain and had that resolved in the first few sessions. We spent the remaining sessions building more resiliency in the back, knees, shoulders and neck. He always spent plenty of time explaining the method and context behind exercise selection. He sent me out the door each week armed with a new set of tools to address my current issues and the confidence to continue doing the things I love. Wesley Santos2024-10-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr. Jim helped me be able to continue to do what I love without having to deal With the stress of not knowing when I would leave the gym or a race in so much pain I couldn’t even drive home. I’ve always been active but, in the last 5 years I have been dealing with some Lower back pain that would flare up randomly after a workout. With the help Of Dr. Jim I was able to treat the area, strengthen the muscles and learn how to Move properly in order to lift, run, climb or any other activity without being afraid. Thank you Dr. Jim!Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 31 reviews
